Hi all
Just browsing the web for a Perkins parts list and found a Perkins workshop manual listed. wha'ts intriguing is that the front cover shows a 3.152 engine with a supercharger fitted.
Has anyone any knowledge of one ever being fitted to a Dexta?
That would see off most F$%^£%^n models!

Jerry, looks like a Perkins T3.1524 with turbo. Distantly related to the F3.152. :yeah: Don't know if one has been fitted to a Super Dexta.What I would like to know is were there any performance enhancing modifications done to Dexta/Super Dexta's in the 60's and what were they ?TSG.

Seem to remember on the old board, a Dexta with a V8 Perkins fitted. Straight ahead only! :roll:
